Thought these might interest some of you
Seriously, more than likely all the warbird cutaways you will ever need! - WAR HISTORY ONLINE
Incidentally the host site is very interesting in itself

Thanks for the head up! FlightGlobal is my usual source of aviation cutaway drawing, also Bill Gunston's 'The Illustrated Encyclopedia of World's Modern Military Aircraft' is quite good source for military aircrafts up to late cold war era (yeah, that's modern for 1980 standard, the Sukhoi 'Fencer' are even still erroneously designated Su-19 in it)

And FYI, most of the cutaway drawing are credited to John Weal, he is the illustrator for the well known FlightGlobal cutaway and had illustrated many books including my aforementioned book by Bill Gunston. His illustration is easily recognizeable by 'WEAL' marks, usually under the horizontal stabilizer

I also saw some of Keith Fretwell arts, just type 'Keith fretwell cutaway' or 'John weal cutaway' on the google image search and you would see wide array of their illustration

And back in the day (1940s to 1960s), Douglas Rolfe was the name to conjure with for his pen and ink sketches and aircraft cutaway drawings, many of which appeared in Air Trails and Air Progress in the United States.

Cutaway Drawings

Thanks for the heads up!

Great cutaway drawings by Douglas Rolfe and others. I downloaded twenty of them rightaway. My favorite is the Vickers Vimy bomber from 1919.

All the best from Stockholm,
Bengt
